I’m a 28 year old community college student studying criminal justice. I live at home due to economic struggles and am not making excuses for my living situation as I am not LAZY. Back in the day I was. I hung out with loosers and was not motivated. At 22, I joined the navy only to get thrown out 6 weeks into it due to medical reason which were complete BS!! Now for about almost 8 years, have had no friends. Not really. Never had a girlfriend and almost have the highest respect for them even though I gawk at them in movies and in magazines like any other normal guy would.

I’ve been told I am good looking. I am serious about my physical appearance and do navy SEAL excerise regmimens and am very descipline about them and staying on a good diet. I multi-task while at the gym by brining my school index cards with me to study in between sets. Every wrong answere I get, I drop and do 25 push-ups. I’m my own drill instructor lol.

I’m looking for a sincere answere about myself here. Please no George Sodini jokes as they are not funny in the least. I say that because in this day and age, thanks to George, a guy can’t be a reject without being considered a future murderer of innocents. I’m a good man with great plans. I’m becomming a volunteer firefighter in my town and want to help people. What category would I fall into?

I’m not anti-social or anything. At my age, it’s hard to make friends with new people since everyone my age or a little older have full-time jobs or families or both. I’m no wierdo. After telling people at my work about my workout routine and how I stick by it they ask my why I’m doing this. I just tell them because I’m feeling like a monster(in a good way). lol. Just recicing the line of Tim Roth in "The Incredible Hulk" hahaha.

Please provide the main reason that you think elderly people commit suicide. Also, for my study, please provide your age and whether you are male or female.

Why do so many people view elderly people with negative feelings? Isn’t there beauty in age?

I’m 21 with oily sensitive skin. I don’t show many signs of aging except im starting to notice laugh lines and crows feet (obviously not deep lines but i can see the start of it ).

I was curious to find out if I use anti aging products that would stimulate cell turnover and things similar to that if i would just be damaging my skin in the end? I really just want to prevent signs of aging the best i can , I already wear a high spf moisturizer daily and wear sunscreen on my body everyday and saw dramatic results from my skin healing from the sun damage . Anyone who has an idea?

Hey Girls…at least I hope your all girls…
I was wondering if you had any good facial mask recipes. Some nice natural ones. Also I’m looking for any other beauty tips for anti aging, foot treatments and so on.
Thank you all,

1. Soon after Dr. Atkins died anti-Atkins groups started spreading lies that he died from his diet.

The truth:

On April 8, 2003, at age 72, Dr. Atkins slipped on the ice while walking to work, hitting his head and causing bleeding around his brain. He lost consciousness on the way to the hospital, where he spent two weeks in intensive care. His body deteriorated rapidly and he suffered massive organ failure. During this time, his body apparently retained an enormous amount of fluid, and his weight at death was recorded at 258 pounds. His death certificate states that the cause of death was "blunt impact injury of head with epidural hematoma".
Youre so wrong. Low carb diets are a way of life. You give up only sweets and starchy veg. In the very first phase of atkins you are eating 3 cups of greens a day, and it increases with more and more as you go along the 4 phases. Once someone switches to a low carb lifestyle there is no going back. You can eat right for a month or 2 and then go back to eating Krap.
France eats, more fat and meat than we do and they have less heart attacks- why? we eat 5 times the sugar they do. Low carb means high fiber veg and fats and proteins. If you don’t eat fat then your insulin levels sky rocket, fat is the only one that keeps insulin levels and blood sugar normalized.
I meant you cannot go back to eating krap- you have to have a low carb lifestyle and that only means very little starches and empty sugars. Read the books and you will actually know what you’re talking about.

Lets all share some anit aging tips! I am 29 and though I smoke still attract 20 yr old guys kinda weird but flattering! Lol anyway here is some of my beauty tips,find a good lotion!!! Cliniques lotion is very good,anything fragrance free is good but I use generic walmart lotion it is the same as olay regenerist and works great for me! Also exfoliate once a week,I use a homemade exfoliate and its great mix sugar,honey,olive oil and organic apple cidar vinegar and skin looks really good!!! Also the obvious drink water,plenty of rest,eat healthy,exercise and hardest thing keep stress leves low!!! Some beauty secrets for hair if you are going gray I just discovered Joico makes a line of products called Renu check it out!!! Also for hair unless your hair is very oily do not wash and blow dry everyday,avoid products with alcohol in it,get reguar trims,and take it easy on the colors and chemical service try to just color regrowth only. Anybody else got any other good tips??

I have overheard women saying that it is better to avoid having lengthy hot baths during the period (menstrual cycle) because it causes a woman to age prematurely in comparison to not.

I am less than two weeks away from my 30th birthday (gulp), and have spent more than half my life on Clearasil face wash for mild acne (with occasional stints of ProActiv or MaMa lotion which never seemed to work for me).

Can anyone recommend a line of (or specific products) skin care that combines anti-aging with anti-acne? I’ve perused the drug store shelves and am confused overwhelmed by the selections offered. It seems like they are targeted to women 10-20 years older and apparently I’m too old for acne, because I haven’t found anything yet.

I want to use 3 step and sunblock from Clinique and skin care anti aging+ blackhead treatment from another brand ?
thanks.

OK, since the age of 8 years old I started getting EXTREME vaginal itching but I have never had any other symptoms!

No Color Changes…No Discharge…No Odors…Absolutely no difference between “Itch Time”&“No Itch Time”It makes no difference if I groom, don’t groom, or shave.

It seems to correlate to the time before my periods & hormone flux but that is only a tenuous connection since it happens in between as well.

I thought I had noticed a difference in intensity that correlates with diet. It SEEMED like it got worse if I ate white flour & processed carbs bt then again, it can just “Happen”because I go through periods of months w/ very little processed white flour&then get PMS/PMT, get really depressed, or stressed & have a ton of carbs for a few days then another2months of barely any.

I use tons of benzocane anti-itch creams&thank the gods for Wal-Mart & their.00a tube20%benzocane vaginal anti-itch creams! I should purchase stock!
It does seem to stop if I take a lot of pain killers which is a good thing because with my bad hip I use a lot of pain killers anyways…Ibuprofen & Aleve, nothing harder then that.

What is REALLY horrible about using the benzocane is that I use it mainly in the middle of the night after the pain killers wear off&the itching will wake me up&if I don’t get all the residue off of my hands it turns ANY color nail polish yellow!

Also, when I get near my period I soak in a bath with baking soda to help balance my vaginal ph&it seems to help but not enough!

Please, if you experience anything even remotely like this PLEASE tell me what you do!
I forgot to mention that I have seen doctors… I have been screened for STD’s and come up clean…

The doctors I have seen say "Use the anti itch cream and come back if you get any discharge or odor changes."

I have been to doctors in 2 states, Arizona an Illinois, and no one can tell me anything else…

This CAN’T be "In my head" because it hurts too much! (By Hurt I mean Itching to the point of pain)

Sorry for leaving that out…
p.s. I use benzocane anti-itch cream, anti-fungal creams have done nothing.

The stuff I use is just a numbing cream… The same exact ingredient as in Origel to numb soft tissue in the mouth.

i am just 17, but it looks as though im already 20. people call me with respect because they thought i was older than them, but in fact we are just of the same age. i look mature and sometimes i do act more mature than them. there are times i am shy to approach people because of this matter.

What are some anti-aging secrets to keep face skin firm for life?

Did you know that 40 years worth of anti cholesterol HYPERBOLE and low fat /and or low cholesterol diets have NOT lowered the age – adjusted incidence of CHD ONE IOTA

My mom in Mississippi, who is 73, lives on Social Security, receives Medicare, and is unemployed, just sold her house. She invested the larger part of her money (,000) in a CD, and a small amount (,000) in a Money Market. It was her first home sale, she has no other money or property and is now living in a one bedroom apt. My question is at her age and income and tax bracket will she have to pay any taxes on the money she made from the sale of her home and/or will she be taxed in any way on the money she now has in her two types of savings accounts?
She lived in the home for 42 years, and as far as her SS, she receives 0.00 a month for a total of a little over ,000 in SS each year, that is her only income. She is receiving about 0.00 a month on her CD.
